SLC2A1 and neoplasm: The tumor growth curve demonstrated that SLC2A1-AS1 knockdown dramatically suppressed tumor growth (Fig. 8A and B), but not affected the body weight of nude mice (Fig. 8C), coupled with SLC2A1-AS1 downregulation and miR-378a-3p upregulation in EC9706 cells xenografted tumor tissues (Fig. 8D and E).
